[ Really, she had hoped to get her thoughts out about this sooner, but there are things she wants to Address and get people to think about now that it seems like a new year is upon them. It makes sense after the Christmas/Yule w/e celebrations that had taken place. For any that may know her though, she definitely seems very upbeat today. ]

Good day, everyone. [ It's the first time she's actually addressed the magitek like this though, which is why she tries to keep as formal as possible from the get go. ] My name is Sonia Nevermind, some of you may know me, others may not -- if that is the case, it is a pleasure to meet you now.

I was wondering... is it common for people of your worlds to make New Years Resolutions? This is where you make promises or goals for yourself for the new year.

For me, this year I hope to get stronger, so I may protect those I care about. I wish to learn more about medicine, to ensure that those with healing skills are not tiring themselves out. [ She's ticking these off with her fingers as she goes. ] I wish... to be more honest, about past instances that were beyond my control... but I feel are important to share with friends. I wish to spend more time with others, and learn more about the different cultures and languages we have within our team. If you were to consider this now... what would you choose?

Also, as we have been in good spirits recently, I also hoped we may try to get to know one another better with a game? There is one called "2 truths 1 lie", I believe, where we share two pieces of information that are "real" along with one piece of information that is a lie. As I understand, this is a hella good game to bond. For example: "I can speak 30 languages." "I have got a sister." "I can pilot a helicopter." Which one is incorrect?


[ ooc: re: the 2 truths 1 lie thing please feel free to threadjack etc as well as she does mean for it to happen so people can get to know each other [smh] ]

This is real high school, like one step away from "truth or dare", but I guess that still applies to one of us fuckers.

(thinking...)

One, I've got the Japan under-thumb and my notoriety reaches the USA. Two, my parents were arrested for stock fraud in Europe and have 15 years left on their sentence. Three, I completed a 2000km journey run from San Antonio, Texas to Las Vegas, Nevada in a summer.

Like that?

[assent]

Ah! If you would like we could also play that--! [ Really she just... wants to try and have fun and enjoy the moment while it's calm. ] That is the correct form, yes.

Though hmm... the lie is the one about your parents? Though I suppose... as we are from different worlds I would not have heard it... possibly...

[slushfund]

Bingo, a point for the fucking Princess. Europe's finest. (SO WRY, but at least this means he likes you well enough.

not the first time he used the stock fraud excuse. for others and himself. except admitting the latter would simply be him telling satan's honest truth.)

Whaddaya win?

[assent]

That means your feats are rather impressive, however. [ She beams, lighting up even though she doesn't realise he's sharing for that reason. ]

Um... I suppose a plus one on the friendship scale? I do not believe there are points in this game however... Would you like me to say another?

[slushfund]

(takes the compliment, but with a surprising amount of modesty that keeps him quiet.

instead,) Goody, do I get a pay raise?

(waving his hand, happy to continue.)

Go ahead with a fresh one, I already know what the first answer is by peeking at everyone else's answers.

[assent]

Sadly I am not in charge of our pay here. [ She's smiling as she says it though, then continues on to give another set of three statements. ]

My favourite colour is yellow. My favourite animal is a rabbit. My favourite food is soup.

[slushfund]

Soup. (points, before leaning onto his hand.) No one's favourite food is soup!

oops i changed it around *pink not yellow but yeah [smh]

[assent]

It is not mine... any longer, no. [ Not when you've had aphro poured into it... though the memories of school are faintly hard to get to, there's a feeling of not liking soup anymore.

DR3 is a wild ride. ]

Though I would like to try ramen again! It has been a long time, now.

NO WORRIES HAHAHA

[slushfund]

What about the instant kind of ramen? (motions away from the camera.)

I'm sure they've got something like that in the kitchen.

cries

[assent]

Does... that not contain more calories? [ She frowns at him, her hand dropping down to her lap. Ah, yes, even princesses worry about this kind of stuff. ]

Re: cries

[slushfund]

Worried about getting fat? Ah, maybe you shouldn't have any, then...

(RUDE AF)

It's delicious though. Salty.

[assent]

[ TRULY RUDE AF... ]

I... see. [ Food envy is hard. Sweet or salty it doesn't matter, as long as it isn't sour. ] Perhaps just once would not hurt?

[slushfund]

Of course once wouldn't hurt. Just work it off after.

(a snort of a laugh, rather genuine. she's more than a bit ridiculous and he can't say it's not growing on him.)

Go on, you know what you're missin'. If ya want exercise drills later, call me.

[assent]

I suppose that is true... there is plenty of time to do that here, and I have been training!

[ She looks so proud of herself. ]

Do you think I can get someone to cook it for me?
